Also a crime: when the local anti-gay right-wing fundie propositions a plainclothes cop for some oral in a hotel parking lot.

I like that Oklahoma City is abbreviated to OKC.

I guess he just figured that his penis needed to be baptized.

"pastoring to police"

Is it just me, or does something about the wording -- "offering to engage in an act of lewdness" -- seem to suggest that he wanted to do the sucking?

But holy geez: there's no claim that money was involved, and it suggests that he wanted to perform this act in a private room. Are they suggesting that he made a legitimate offer (to an adult, and all) in an inappropriate "lewd" fashion? I could see why you might have laws against randomly asking strangers to perform sex acts, since there are situations where that could be conceived as threatening or aggressive or whatever. But as there are no particular details given on that front, I'm thinking the men of Oklahoma should really be up in arms about this: someone's claiming it's illegal for people proposition them!

Blimey, that's a law that would shut down every branch of Wetherspoon's in the UK. Actually, perhaps it's not a bad idea...

Well I'd support people's right to proposition whosoever they choose, but I guess I can imagine circumstances in which it'd be kinda, umm, wrong. (This doesn't sound like one of those circumstances.)

When he left jail, he said:

"I was set up. I was in the area pastoring to police."

In other Oklahoma news, the Cherokee Nation's top court has upheld the marriage of two women in Tahlequah.

"Members of the Tribal Council, like private Cherokee citizens, must demonstrate a specific particularized harm," the court ruled. "In the present case, the Council members fail to demonstrate the requisite harm."

I've got to hand it to the Oklahoma Board of Tourism's graphics department for coming up with the idea to use a little line coiled in on itself that resembles both the geographic boundaries of the state of Oklahoma as well as what I assume is an indigenous art design to form the three a's in their tourism campaign slogan, "Native america." Your attention to detail did not go entirely unnoticed, Oklahoma Board of Tourism.

But why is the M in OKLAHOMA not white like the other letters. Why is it orange like the "Native america."
